I thought the point here was the price difference (~$1000 for the CS 
TetraMic vs. ~$7000 for the SoundField ST350). But those mics are 
sort of apples and oranges -- unless he was talking about 
SoundField's upcoming SPS200 A-Format mic:

SoundField hasn't announced a price yet, but it's rumored to be about $2000.

You probably get what you pay for. . .
